In 2010 3,736 GDS volunteers performed 14,971.5 hours of service in 43 cities. Service sites are set up around the world, providing a cohesive and organized global effort to further the ethic of service encouraged and demonstrated by the BU family. Busy that day? Don’t worry, they have built in a cushion so that GDS volunteer hours served between April 10 and April 24 will count toward their grand total. Sign up now
